The error ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package usually occurs when you are using a relative import in a script that is not being executed as part of a package. In Python, relative imports only work when a module is executed as part of a package, not as a standalone script.
Ensure you’re running the script as part of a package: Make sure you are running the script in a way that Python recognizes it as part of a package. For instance, instead of running a file directly like:
python myscript.py
Use absolute imports: If relative imports are not essential, you can replace them with absolute imports. For example, instead of:
from .module import something
USE:
from mypackage.module import something
Adjust your folder structure: If you’re trying to use relative imports in a script inside a folder, ensure the folder is structured as a package, which means it should contain an __init__.py file.
